Diet Pepsi - $1.39 Q's -$18 ($3 ESC Schick q) -$5 ($5/20 q) -$3 Schick Intuition q I got @ Target a couple of weeks ago -$3 Schick Intuition q I got @ Target a couple of weeks ago -$3 Schick Intuition q I got @ Target a couple of weeks ago -$3 Schick Intuition q I got @ Target a couple of weeks ago -$3 Schick Intuition q I got @ Target a couple of weeks ago -$3 Schick Intuition q I got @ Target a couple of weeks ago -$2 RR earned previously Total OOP = $1.39 I've discovered that if you have a q that totals more than the amount, then of course it will beep when they scan it. However, if you have more than one of those items, then the register takes the grand total, and as long as the grand total is less than the q amount, then the q will scan and not beep. I bought 5 Renuzit Tri-Scents @ $2.59 ea. that totaled $12.95, so I was able to use three $4/1 qs and they didn't beep, so I paid 95c for five of them! It's worked on other things in the past that I've tried when things went on clearance. Had balance on gift card, so my OOP was actually $0! Last edited by myoung; 11-14-2008 at 04:10 PM. |

| In my stores, the $5/20 q will scan as long as I give it to them first, and my total is $20 after all ESC and in-ad q's are scanned. Then, I can give them all the manus I want and it will not kick the $5 discount off. |

| I had cashiers who were more excited about the coupons than I was. Plus, I ran into a friend that is getting into coupons and I was able to help her do some successful transactions. 1st Transaction 1 Theraflu Liquid - $5.99 2 Glade Scented Oil Holder Dewberry- $3.59 (clearance) 6 Glade Glass Scents Linen - $1.99 (clearance) Q's - $5.97 BOGO Free on the Glade Glass Scents - $3.59 BOGO Free on the Glade Scented Oil Holder - $5 ($5/20 q) - $2 Theraflu - $1 Coupon (I have no clue what this was for. The cashier was just scanning away.) Total OOP (gift card) w/Tax = $8.96 MIR for Theraflu $4.99 Net OOP $3.97 2nd Transaction 2 Betty Crocker Frosting $1.29 1 Progresso Soup $3.19 1 Progresso Soup $2.39 1 Loreal Age Perfect Pro-Calcium Moisturizer 14.99 (25% off sale) 2 Excedrin Gel Caps 1 Almay Lip Color $2.19 (clearance) Q's - $1.00 off two Betty Crocker Frosting - $.02 Betty Crocker Frosting (Wags in ad coupon) - $2.20 Progresso Soup (IP coupons for $1.10 ea.) - $4.00 Excedrin Gel Caps (IP coupons for $2 ea.) - $2.00 Any Loreal coupon - $6.99 Excedrin Gelcaps (BOGO Free Sale in store) - $5 ($5/20 q) Total OOP (gift card) w/Tax = $16.11 MIR for Excedrin Gelcaps $6.99 MIR for Loreal Moisturizer $14.99* Net OOP -$5.87 * I am guessing that they will do the rebate for the amount that it scanned. Correct me if I am wrong. Went to another Walgreen's and bought some more clearance candles. 3rd Transaction 4 Glade Scented Oil Candle Holders $3.59 (clearance) 2 Quaker 1 Minute Oats (One rang up at $2.79 & one rang up at $2.21) 2 Kellogg's Special K $2.50 ea. 2 Kellogg's Frosted Miniwheats $2.50 ea. 2 Excedrin Gel Caps Q's - $1.00 off Quaker Oatmeal - $1.00 off Kellogg's Special K - $1.00 off Kellogg's Special K - $1.00 off any Kellogg's cereal - $1.00 off any Kellogg's cereal - $3.59 BOGO Free on the Glade Scented Oil Holder - $3.59 BOGO Free on the Glade Scented Oil Holder - $2.21 off Quaker Oats (Wags ad coupon) - $5 ($5/20 q) Total OOP (gift card) w/Tax = $11.52 Register Rewards $2.00 from Kellogg's Net OOP $9.52 Last edited by desiab; 11-14-2008 at 11:01 PM.

| I did it 3 times tonight, had to total more than 20 after qs, grr. Not sure if everything rang up the way it should've with qs, I need to look at in the morning. They were out of choc chips, PB, corn starch, baking powder, frosting, and only soups we don't care for were left. ACT popcorn was on clearance for $1. Got mostly razors and bioinfusion (never tried that before), . |

| you know what? this trip is bugging me because I spent about $44 OOP, even though I'll get the rebate, it now seems like a ton of money. Maybe it's bugging me because I know the last thing I needed was more shampoo/conditioner? good lesson learned. I also like that spending $20 on one transaction seems like a ton of money now. Thanks to this site for teaching me that. |

| so, if you give the $5/20 coupon to the cashier before the other coupons, and your balance is more that 20.... will it take the $5 off? and then if your other coupons brings the total to below 20... below 10... below 5... will the $5 stay off, or does it add it back on? Anytime I can avoid a "manager being called over"...... that's when they start not liking you..... ugh. I'm headed over now, and would love to use my $5/20.... If only I had more progresso q's! |
